Separate names with a comma.
There's a modest improvement in visibility too, with the rear headrests out of the way. This is a sufficient reason for me to drive this way.
One reason could be that the fuel economy of non-hybrids continues to improve, giving fuel-conscious buyers more options. Concurrently, Prius...
I understand that Prius owners who have no more drivers than the number of FOB's provided (two), are quite pleased with the SmartKey system. Our...
I actually park far from the entrances of big box retailers --- just so that I don't have to drive the Prius in an area where there are a lot of...
I had a similar problem with a loose sensor - not Toyota, though. Essentially the gap between the sensor and the toothed wheel increased enough...
There are two ways that a piston ring is forced against the cylinder wall. One is by the spring force of the ring; low tension rings have less...
In retrospect I agree that all engines operating at part throttle have high friction relative to the power output, not just pseudo-Atkinson cycle...
There is actually a mechanical issue as well since the regenerative braking is applied by the transaxle to the front wheels through a differential...
These have been referred to as "Titanic" impacts.
I don't think that we disagree about the nature of pumping losses. You elaborations may be helpful to others. Your suggestion about closing the...
This is a useful compilation that shows the variations within a specified grade. If one wants to investigate the differences among oil performance...
In order to eliminate pumping losses you would have to achieve a full atmosphere of pressure in the cylinder at the beginning of the compression...
I agree with this, especially with respect to European vehicles. My Volvo 850 used about a qt every 3500 miles when new and uses about the same...
Someone here must make some quantitative measures of performance prior to getting the recall and then followup afterwards!
I think the real issue for all of us is that the software mod will reduce the number and/or levels of thermal stress cycles at the IGBT die...
Not quite the traditional pawl but a rotation lock indeed. This thing really needs a manual override so that the vehicle can be readily towed if...
So how is the transaxle locked when the vehicle is un-powered?
I did the same -- I bought name brand after-market wiper blades, found that they did not perform nearly as well as the originals, and then went...
Well, Prius III has a nice sharp turning radius but the worst outward visibility of any vehicle I've ever owned. It also has body panels so low...
My Prius is similar. While I would classify its handling as "safe", I do fine the lack of precise tracking annoying. To me, what the vehicle needs...
